Should landscapers be certified or licensed?

<div>When it comes to landscapers, licensing laws vary. Landscaping architects are required to be licensed in all 50 states, whereas traditional landscaping contractors are not typically required to hold a certification. You’ll likely be working with a landscaping contractor for most residential projects. If you are redesigning your whole yard or adding in hardscape features, you will work with a landscaping architect at some point during the project. Be sure to <a href="https://www.angi.com/angi-license-check.htm">check our state licensing tool</a> to review the local landscaper guidelines.As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include: <ul><li>The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check</li><li>Required to have applicable state and local licenses</li><li>Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review</li><li>Paying to advertise their services</li><li>Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi</li></ul>Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.</div>

How much are typical landscaping costs?

<div><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-landscaping-cost.htm">Landscaping costs</a> around $3,500 but varies widely from $200 to $14,000. Factors that play a part in your final landscaping price tag include:<ul><li>Location</li><li>Yard size</li><li>Project size</li><li>Materials</li><li>Land preparation</li><li>Type of landscaping</li></ul>Considering so many factors, it’s not surprising that the overall costs can differ. A typical landscaping project is flower bed installation, which averages between $800 and $3,000. However, landscape lighting installation is a higher-end project, with a price tag of $2,000 to $6,000. </div>

They do a great job cutting the grass. They are careful not to cut it too low so that the grass doesn’t die out. The blades are always sharpened. They also provide trimming for shrubbery. They cut and prune shrubbery. He also puts mulch and rocks in the beds and keeps everything weed free.

Horrible! They scalped the lawn when mowing. Over sprayed landscape weeds that it ran into yard killing the grass. The lawn team that sprays the grass had such weak solution that it never killed weeds in yard. I pulled weeds that had 4-5" of root growth because they didn't do their job

Cliff and Don don't believe in sharpening the mower blades. My lawn always looked terrible. Dull blades only push the grass over and rips rather than cuts which weakens the grass and allows weeds to take over. I spoke with Cliff and Don several times about the problems and gave them every...
